— ADH5 ADH5 Asthma Risk Haplotype Variant
Intronic variant in ADH5 (GSNOR) in near-complete LD (r²=0.99) with adjacent promoter SNPs at a potential NF-κB binding site; the common A allele tags the asthma risk haplotype associated with elevated GSNOR transcription, GSNO depletion, and increased childhood asthma susceptibility, while the protective T allele is associated with reduced GSNOR expression and lower asthma risk
